need an expert on wages


If I earned £25500 for a year and my tax code was 645 would that give me 1587.50 a month?

If so how do I work out ni on this amount?

Reason being my missus is after a new job and we need to see if we can afford it. smile

Thanks for your time.

Hi Steve,

very rough figure quick calculation :

On £25,500 you would pay £3810 tax and 2176.35 EMPE leaving you with £19513.65.

(If your interested I calculate the the EMPR is £2532.48).

Hope that this helps. It probably isn't to the penny but it's not far out (There or thereabout as Rob would say!).

Shaun.

P.S. note that as you didn't say whether the code was L I just used 6450 rather than 6455 as the tax free amount.

Its an L code, like I say I don't know anything about wages at all so I don't know what EMPR is and EMPE is so you've managed to baffle me but if that figure is where or whereabouts (which is what I like ) then we will be happy days.

Cheers smile

On £25500 with a tax code of 645 I work it out to be £3809 tax and £2176.35 Employees NI (based on PT of 5715) which would give annual net income of £19514.65 or £1626.22 a month or thereabouts.

Hi Steve,

for 645L I get tax and N.I. to the penny the same as Sheila but I think that she's gone a little amiss with the net income.

£25,500 - (3809+2176.35) = 19,514.65 or £1626.22 pcm.

Shaun.

Hi Steve,

Just for info.

EMPE is the employee's N.I. contributions and EMPR is the employers N.I. contributions.

The part that employee's normally refer to as N.I. is EMPE.

cheers,

Shaun.

Hi Sheila,

goes back to one of my posts from the other day that I often find myself doing calculations long hand to confirm what the calculator is telling me.

In this instance though I've got a little Excel routine that I've built that I just tell it the pay and the tax code and it does it all for me.

Have you noticed though that if you actually use the NI books you come out with an incorrect figure for the year where invariably your in profit over doing the calculation properly!

Cheers Shaun, it's low end stuff but perfect for a newbie like me.

It bodes well that the closing date is 1st June and they called me a few hours after dropping my application in, so like you say fingers crossed and i could be on my way to achieving what i set out to do.

No I would never abandon this forum you've all been a great help and it's a good source of knowledge and you all seem like thoroughly decent folks, plus I'd miss amandas avatar. biggrin

Thanks to all of you.

Quick question though, I meet all their criteria bar manual cash book entries. I know how to do them (part of AAT) but never used them in real life and from what I can see they also want someone who can use sage (which I can), question is why would they want both? Surely if they are using sage they wouldn't need me to also manually enter payments and reciepts into a cash book when they can just be entered on sage.

Anyone know of any reason to use both?

All comments would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for your time.

Hi Rob,

sorry, not seeing it.


Tax
basic amount 25500
Less personal allowance 6455 = 19045
19045 @ 20% = £3809


N.I.
Basic amount 25500
less allowance 5715 = 19785
EMPE = 19785 * 11% = 2176.35
EMPR = 19785 * 12.8% = 2532.48


Do you believe that I've gone wrong somewhere?

Steve didn't ask for us to pro rata the answer so I didn't. Is that where our difference is?

Talk in a bit,

Shaun,

Phew,

but you should take it as a real compliment that if you disagree with me I question my own calculations rather than your answer!

What is it the younger generation say... Respect bro!

Talk in a bit matey,

Shaun.
